A study on categories of questions when holding counselling on learning math in regards to grounded theoretical approaches

근거이론적 접근에 따른 수학학습 상담 발문 유형에 대한 연구

This study was performed in part with the task to find measures to improve the defining characteristics of feelings, value, interest, self-efficacy, and others aspects in regards to learning math among elementary and middle school students. For this study, it was essential to understand the appropriate questions that are needed to be asked during a consultation at a math clinic, for students that are having a hard time learning math. As a method for performing this study, the content of scheduled counseling over 2 years from a math clinic were collected and the questions that were given and taken were analyzed in order to figure out the types of questions needed in order to effectively examine students that are facing difficulty with learning math. The analysis was performed using Grounded theory analysis by Strauss & Corbin(1998) and went through the process of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. For the paradigm in the categorical analysis stage, 'attitude towards learning math' was set as the casual condition, 'feelings towards learning math' was set as the contextual condition, 'confidence in one's ability to learn math' was set as the phenomenon, 'individual tendencies when learning math' was set as the intervening condition, 'self-management of learning math' was set as the action/interaction strategy, and 'method of learning' was set as the consequence. Through this, the questions that appeared during counseling were linked into categories and subcategories. Through this process, 81 concepts were deducted, which were grouped into 31 categories. I believe that this data can be used as grounded theory for standardization of consultation in clinics.

본 연구는 초 중등 학생의 수학에 대한 정서, 가치, 흥미 및 자기효능감 등의 정의적 영역의 개선을 위한 방안을 모색하는데 일환을 두고 수행되었다. 이에 따라 먼저, 수학학습에 어려움을 겪고 있는 학생들의 수학학습 클리닉을 위한 상담 과정에서 상담교사에게 필요한 발문이 무엇인지를 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 지난 2년간 정례적으로 실시해오고 있는 수학클리닉의 상담 내용을 수집하여 상담을 위해 오가던 질문들을 모두 분석함으로써 상담과정에서 학생들을 진단하기 위해 필요한 발문들을 추출하였다. 자료 분석은 Strauss & Corbin(1998)의 근거이론 분석방법을 사용하여 개방코딩, 축 코딩, 선택코딩의 분석단계를 실시하였다. 도출한 패러다임(paradigm) 모형은 인과적 조건으로는 '수학학습 정서', 맥락적 조건으로 '수학학습능력 자신감', 중심현상은 '수학학습 태도', 중재적 조건은 '수학학습 개인적 성향', 작용/상호작용으로 '수학학습 자기관리', 그리고 마지막 결과로는 '수학학습 방법'으로 상담과정에서 나타나는 발문들을 범주와 하위범주들 간의 관계로 연결하였다. 이 과정에서 총 81개의 개념이 도출되었으며, 진술된 개념들은 다시 31개의 관련영역으로 범주화하였다. 본 연구는 클리닉 상담을 위한 진단지 제작 표준화 작업을 위한 근거 이론으로 활용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.
